Since I don’t have an author interview to post today, I checked out the new Google video search technology and found a BookTV interview with Sarah Vowell from a few months ago.  Apparantly, the author was asked if anyone had ever got mad at her because of what she had written.  And her answer:

Sarahvowell"have I had anyone mad at me. I wrote about the Chelsea hotel where history not as hygienic as I would have liked. And the lovely people who run it and they were lovely, I talked to them, they seemed upset about my honesty there."

    I have set up a site to help acquaint people such as them to the 9 Core Values of Blogging, including transparency (not violating privacy or prudence), authenticity, and generosity.
    Blogs gush and blurt, sorry if any get hurt.
    What did Kenneth Patchen think of being candid and blunt?
    I don’t know about what was written or said or anything, but we of the digital age must welcome barbs, greeting them with indifferent curiosity, not rage or sensitivities.
